Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Zovo PDF to Spreadsheet reads the tables in a text-based PDF and returns an Excel workbook (one sheet per table) plus a ZIP of CSV files. Unmatched text rows are retained in Other text with Page, Line, Text. Call convert_pdf_tables when a PDF is attached; call list_pdf_tables to inspect the tables first. Text PDFs only (no OCR).

list_pdf_tables — List PDF tables
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Use this when the user wants to extract table from pdf, copy table from pdf, or inspect pdf to spreadsheet tables, before exporting: it shows each table's size, column types and first rows with no download. Does not make Excel or CSV files (use convert_pdf_tables for that), does not read scanned pages (no OCR), and handles up to 15 MB and 50 pages. Do not use for editing a PDF or for a PDF that is not a table.
